if there is such an animal...


Poem Artwork

The perfect man realizes there is
no such thing as perfection,
then moves to make up for
the correction.
The perfect man,
also has an A, B and C plan.
A being the number one uno,
B following up as the next to know.
C being the last leg,
placing him in the position to beg.


I went through A,B and C,
had to get myself back together
before the count of one, two, three.
The count past me running,
being a failure knock me stunning.
I found myself down at the count of ten,
lost in space still trying to win.


I faced the drummer,
some of the things I was doing
couldn't have been dumber.
Alcohol was about the worse,
the other stupidity added to the curse.
They say you can't keep
a good man down,
maybe this is why I'm still around.
Still around far from perfection,
surviving through my love connection.

How'd I miss this? Grady I have always loved your down to earth writes. This one makes it clear a man needs a play to stay number one! And no one is perfect.

Great write and it makes a wonderful point. The fact is there was only one perfect man. If we draw from him we reach for perfection
God Bless,

The only Perfect Man was the One who died on the Cross at Calvary for our sins. Excellent write, Grady; no, we aren't perfect, nor will we ever be so. We're human; we make mistakes. Let's hope we can learn from some of them in our lives. Very well done poem, One; bravo!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :)
